Book Synopsis

When a dark power rises, only a cursed prince can stand against it.

Baleron is the youngest son of the king of Havensrike, a land eternally at war with the sinister empire of Oslog to the south, ruled by the Dark Lord himself. Baleron, a womanizer and rogue, the black sheep of the royal family one step from being kicked out of the castle, longs to redeem himself in his father's eyes. But when his beautiful sister Rolenya is seized by the dark powers, the thralls of the Dark Lord call out to Baleron in worship, calling him the Chosen One of their Master. What can they mean?

As if that weren't bad enough, the gears of war begin to turn, and the legions of Oslog pour forth from their lairs to make war upon the free peoples of the North. If Baleron can't save his sister and unlock the secret of his nature, the Dark Lord will sweep the world in shadow.

    Too much sado-mastic rendering to make it palatable. A few engaging characters, but author seems fixated an blood, gore and torture.
  • Fast Paced and Brutal

    By Phucanoll
    This is a violent beginning of a series that pits man against monsters, demons, vampires, werewolves and of course, himself. So far, there’s no outright hero....everyone has some weakness, some twist of fate that prevents this epic tale from going down the road of the cliché. The brutalities of war are evident throughout the first book, a warning for some of you out there. Four out of five stars because the author wrote the intimate scenes without much.....well....intimacy. Some of the words used made me cringe a bit. Besides that, the action is well portrayed and the author does a great job of making you want to both smack and applaud the lead roles in this epic. Fans of G.R.R. Martin will definitely enjoy this beginning epic.

    Imaginative story, but rambles a bit and overly gory
